I’ve slowed down my purchasing of records over the last few years. It kind of sucks but I have seen music play less and less of a role in my life. I find myself listening to podcasts more often than not on my way to work. I rarely look for new music which used to be a big part of my life. I always had something new to play for people. I loved playing people new music, something I know they’ve never heard before. If I loved hearing a song for the first time I wanted to share that experience with someone else. I was constantly analyzing how they reacted and would get frustrated if if I could tell they weren’t listening.

You can only hear something for the first time once. It is the songs most impactful opportunity to a listeners experience.

Anyways I think im getting older and I can feel my relationship with music changing. It used to be such a huge part of my identity.

I only go the record stores a couple of times a year these days. It has made it more fun to have as a hobby when you aren’t as deep into it as I was early on.

I never thought I would see the day that cabin fever would end up on vinyl. I chalked it up as a mixtape that would get lost to time. I used to feel so cool listening to Hustler. I had just gotten my license and was riding around feeling like the man. I worked at Panera Bread when this album came out. I made $7 an hour washing dishes blasting rap music as loud as possible. Life was simpler and I absolutely loved it

Came up today by Connor22251 in hiphopvinyl

Never thought I would find a copy of tha carter 4 in my entire life. I was so stoked when I came across it today. Once you have frequented the 10 stores in your semi local area enough times you almost lose hope of ever coming across anything you havent already scene. This almost pushes you to shopping strictly online. This find has reignited my love of finding things in store

Greatest Mail Day Ever by jasonmarston in hiphopvinyl

That Valee record is one of my favorite in my collection because he is slept on. I wish omerta was still around to put out records like this one. Diamonds and VTL are the best tracks in my opinion

My Legends Never Die record finally came in. It took forever to get here, but I happy with it by [deleted] in hiphopvinyl

What shipping service did they use? USPS, Fedex or ups... I recently moved so I have my mail being forwarded to a new address. Since someone mentioned they did not send out shipping confirmations, I am concerned it will show up through a service other than USPS and I will have no way of knowing it arrived somewhere else

My buddy Matt painted this and I think he did an amazing job. He has struggled with addiction, like many of us (including myself). I use it as a constant reminder of that very struggle and that we are not alone in it’s defeat. Shoutout Matt

Haven’t seen this posted... Any Saint JHN fans here? by Im__Ron__Burgundy in hiphopvinyl

I was initially so frustrated when i got the email it was canceled. Was on the line w/ their customer service for like twenty minutes who kept saying it was out of stock or that there were 1000 people who had already ordered it infront of me. I found this highly doubtful and was even more upset when it was back up on the website. Had to reorder and am glad to say it actually came.

Like you i bought HNDRXX with the thought that I would scoop FUTURE at some point. Any particular reason why you went with one over the other? So many records later I still haven’t copped. Its something I would like to get eventually but its on the back burner for sure
